These have already been created, but not finished. Currently, they need a backplane and a connector attached to them. The theoretical gain is ~22dbi and theoretical beam width is < 10 degrees. Practical gain is unknown.

These antennas have the amazing property of being able to lock onto any signal regardless of polarization.
